U BEFORE FIRST USE
• Fill to max, boil, discard the water, and rinse.
C FILLING
1 Put the stand on a stable, level surface.
2 Wind excess cable beneath the stand.
3 Press the lid lock to open the lid.
4 Fill with at least 1 cup of water, but not
above max.
5 If you want only 1, 2, or 3 cups of water, fill
to the 1, 2, or 3 marks inside the kettle.
6 Close the lid, and press down to lock it.
C SWITCHING ON
7 Plug the stand into the wall socket.
8 Put the kettle on the stand.
9 Move the switch to 1 – the light will glow.
C SWITCHING OFF
10 When it boils, the kettle will switch off.
11 To switch off manually, move the switch to
0, or simply lift the kettle off the stand.
C GENERAL
12 Pour slowly and don’t over-tilt the kettle.
13 Don’t tilt the kettle backwards, water might
get on to the control area.
14 If this happens, sit the kettle somewhere
warm for 12 hours to dry before using it.
15 Don’t worry about moisture on the stand.
The steam used to switch the kettle off is
condensed and vented under the kettle.
16 Don’t worry about discolouration on the
floor of the kettle. It’s due to the bonding of
the element to the kettle floor.
F USING WITH INSUFFICIENT WATER
17 This will shorten the life of the element. A
boil-dry cut-out will switch the kettle off.
18 To avoid cycling on and off, take it off the
stand, and leave it to go completely cold.
C CARE AND MAINTENANCE
19 Unplug the stand, and let the kettle cool.
20 Wipe inside and outside with a damp cloth.
21 Push the hook on top of the filter down,
then lift the filter out of the kettle.
22 Brush the filter under a running tap.
